23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

Swallow-tailed Bee-eaters - Masters of the Sky and Fashion!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this vibrant print captured by Alan Weaving, we witness a dynamic duo of Swallow-tailed Bee-eaters taking a well-deserved break on a roadside bank. These aerial predators are not only skilled hunters but also fashion-forward birds with their stunning plumage. Found in the savanna woodlands of South Africa's Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, these tropical beauties have made Kalahari sand their preferred hunting ground. With lightning-fast reflexes, they snatch insects mid-flight or pluck them from flowers like true connoisseurs. The Swallow-tailed Bee-eaters' colorful green feathers and elegant tails make them stand out among other avian species. It seems they've mastered both sky-high acrobatics and runway-worthy style! As insectivores, these feathered daredevils play an essential role in maintaining ecological balance within their habitat. They soar through the air with grace and precision while keeping insect populations in check. So next time you find yourself strolling through nature's wonders or exploring national parks in Africa, keep an eye out for these enchanting creatures! Their presence adds a touch of vibrancy to any landscape and reminds us that even wildlife has its own sense of fashion flair.
